Do you have a ref for that quote from Friedman it would be very

By the way, the consequence of this fear-induced wage restraint was
that AG let the unemployment rate fall to the lowest level since
1969, 3.8%. Which tightened labor markets, led to broad real wage

course it was all based on an unsustainable boom, but is the best
thing you can say about Greenspan.
